AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
That highly coveted collectible was issued at the time in a very limited edition by Omega to celebrate the historic Apollo 11 moon landing.
It is the ultimate accessory to complete a vintage Omega Speedmaster Professional "Moonwatch" (specifically reference 145.022 or 145.012/105.012 with caliber 321) to a museum-worthy 'Full Set'.
What makes this particular set unique is that it is 100% complete and comes from the official historic Belgian/Benelux importer. Many of these folders have become incomplete over the past 55 years, but this set truly contains everything.
The set consists of:
1. The Original "Crater Box" Folder: The large portfolio folder (outside with the iconic moon crater motif).
2. The Accompanying Letter (Museum Piece!): The original typed letter from the official Omega main importer N.V. Ultimo Watch Co. S.A. of Brussels, dated exactly December 1969. This letter confirms provenance and the original contents of the set.
3. The Introductory Page: The commemorative page in Dutch, including the (printed) signatures of the Apollo 11 astronauts: Neil Armstrong, Michael Collins and Buzz Aldrin.
4. All 20 NASA Photo Prints: The complete set of 20 high-quality, original color prints from the historic Apollo and Gemini space missions. For the other photos in the set (there are only 20 uploads in the advertisement) please send a message.
Condition of the set:
• Case/Folder: In good condition with light signs of aging consistent with its age of over 50 years (see photos).
• Documents & Letter: Beautifully preserved, text is perfectly legible.
• Photo Prints: All 20 photos are present and in very nice condition, with original colors preserved.
Price: Asking price: € 1000 (or a realistic bid according to value)
Delivery: Pickup is preferred due to size and historical value of the set (Region: Flemish Brabant).
Insured and well-packaged shipping is negotiable at the buyer's expense and risk.
